: LAKE LAMAR BRUCE: As some have heard, the lake is being slowly drawn down due to future renovation and repairs to the levee. However, the lake is still open until further notice. Also, all creel limits have been removed. We are still getting a few good bream reports. Target flats near drop-offs as the fish are slowly moving out with the receding water. Worms and crickets have been the hot bait this week but dont overlook the popping bug bite on fly rod. The bass bite is fair. Most folks are throwing smaller baits on light line and targeting creek channels and submerged brush. The crappie bite has been fair. Target suspended crappie along the creek channel and around stump beds. Best depths have been 8-10 ft. Minnows are catching the most fish. As the water drops, the bite for all species should start to pick up. Reported by: MDWFP |

| About: -
Lake Lamar
Bruce, once known as Lake Lee,
was opened in
1954. It is one of 21 state fishing lakes
operated by the Mississippi Department of
Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. Historically
known for its tremendous bream fishery, the
lake also contains good populations of
largemouth bass, crappie and channel catfish. Renovations
during the last two years of existing
gravel beds and other fish attractors make Lamar
Bruce a popular destination. Three fishing
piers located along the shoreline provide good
bank access. A new boat ramp accommodates
boats of all sizes. Presently,
there are no harvest regulations for any
species. However, statewide creel limits do apply.
Sportfishing licenses are required to fish with the
exception of July 4th. Fishing permits are
also required.
